What do I do when a customer sends the same WhatsApp order twice?
By the Menuthere editorial team · Last updated
Ask before you cook. Reply with one short question: is this a second order or the same one? Cook only after the customer answers.
- Compare the two messages: same items, same address, a few minutes apart usually means a repeat by mistake.
- Write: I got this order twice. Do you want two sets, or just one?
- Do not start cooking either copy until you hear back.
- If they say one, reply that you have kept one and delete the extra from your notes.
- Reply fast, because the customer may be nervous and send a third message.
One order, one entry
Each order placed on your Menuthere link shows once in your dashboard, and the partner app rings until it is accepted. Customers get a status page, so they have less reason to send it twice.
